🌅 Oct. 8 Crypto Morning Briefing | What happened overnight?
1️⃣ Middle East tensions escalate sharply: An oil tanker was attacked in the Strait of Hormuz, and Iran declared a state of "total war." Oil prices jumped, while BTC briefly fell below the $84,000 mark (CoinDesk).
2️⃣ Fed minutes strike a hawkish tone: All 19 officials supported a 25-basis-point rate hike in September. Most expected another hike before year-end, with inflation risks tilted to the upside. The AI infrastructure boom was cited as a potential driver of inflation.
3️⃣ Safe-haven demand and buying both surge: Spot gold fell below $4,100, but global gold ETFs attracted a record $31 billion in the third quarter, while China's central bank added to its gold reserves for the 23rd consecutive month.
4️⃣ On-chain activity: Wallets linked to the U.S. government transferred more than $100 million in BTC and BNB (no confirmed sales). Major news for the SOL ecosystem: Orca and Loopscale merged to form Formation, targeting financing for AI, robotics, and defense.
5️⃣ SpaceX plans to raise $40 billion to buy Nvidia chips, as the AI infrastructure arms race continues to heat up.
📌 Today's watchlist: 20:00 USDA export sales, 22:30 EIA natural gas inventories, and the ongoing impact of Middle East tensions on oil prices.
